Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) | comment |
The eleventh entry in the thesaurus-exhaustingly popular Final Fantasy series, Final Fantasy XI is the first MMORPG created by Square Enix, and the first MMO in the Final Fantasy franchise, released in Japan in May of 2002, with a North American release in October of 2003, followed by a European release in September of 2004. It is also the first MMORPG to be released both for home consoles (Playstation 2 and Xbox 360) and the PC. The game even mixes all these players together, as no world is region or console specific.The game takes place in the fantasy world of Vana'diel, which is split into three great nations: San d'Oria, Bastok and Windurst. 20 years prior, the three nations united (with the aid of the neutral city-state of Jeuno) to fight an army led by the mysterious Shadow Lord. The Shadow Lord was eventually defeated, and the three nations entered into a peace treaty in which they would compete for territory not through armed conflict but a system of benefaction called "Conquest".Now in the present day, three great plots are stirring in the heart of each nation, calling for a new generation of adventurers to step into the spotlight of history. Furthermore, there have been signs of increased Beastman activity in recent months, leading to fears that the Shadow Lord may return and resume his bloody campaign across Vana'diel.The game places an incredible emphasis on story while remaining as open-ended as possible, featuring (as of this writing) eleven complete storylines for players to experience: one of each of the three starting nations, one for each expansion pack to the game, and two to cap it off. | |

The Artifact | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_13d7a65e | comment |
The Artifact: Largely averted in the game proper, but played straight with the PlayOnline Viewer, a program that served as a digital social media hub for FFXI and other online multiplayer games from Square. While the program supported many games in its hayday, by 2013, FFXI was the only game that still used it. With its social media functionality either removed or unused, it now essentially serves as a glorified launcher. | |

Our Elves Are Different | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_15fc9fb | comment |
Our Elves Are Different: FFXI's version are the Elvaan, which seem to be a subversion of most elves. They're very tall with somewhat awkwardly long necks and large hands, very strong (stronger than the 8 foot tall wall of muscle that Galka are), and fairly poor with magic. However, they are ostensibly better at healing magic than other schools. They're terrible with bows, though. Legolas they ain't. | |

Peninsula of Power Leveling | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_16972b3c | comment |
Peninsula of Power Leveling: The game lives and breathes this trope. 'EXP Camping' (or Merit Camping, or Job Point camping, or Master Level camping...) is a core part of the game, finding spots in which particular mobs spawn to camp them one by one to get as much XP as you can, usually by grouping up and killing enemies of significantly higher level than yours due to the extra EXP. The earliest and most popular example of a zone that was dedicated to EXP camping is Valkurm Dunes. | |

Punctuation Shaker: Everything related to the Zilart has an apostrophe thrown in somewhere: Zi'Tah, Ru'Avitau, Al'Taieu, Archduke Kam'lanaut, Archduke Vicarious Esha'ntarl, etc. Quadav names (Gu'Dha, Za'Dha, Di'Dha, De'Vyu, etc.) and some Elvaan family names (such as d'Oraguille), too. With Lumorians, this actually serves some purpose. Ul prefaces the weakest in a family (such as Ul'Phuabo), Om the next tier up, and so on. | |

Lord British Postulate | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_1a1ea492 | comment |
Lord British Postulate: Absolute Virtue. Square used to intentionally try to make the boss even more unbeatable if someone actually did beat it* Specifically, the developers designed Absolute Virtue to be defeated in a very specific way. If players found a different way to defeat it, which happened somewhat frequently, the developers did not negate their victory, but did patch the boss to make it impossible for that method to work again, then sometimes banned the players for exploiting glitches to do so* Though that was not because the players won, but rather because they were exploiting glitches, which is against the Terms of Service. | |

The Medic: Many job classes fit this, primarily White Mages, but Red Mages were preferred for a while while the level cap was 75, much to the dismay of quite a few of them (And all of the other jobs that normally heal.) White Mages received some generous updates since to make them more effective at the role. | |

Invulnerable Civilians: Many, many NPCs are somehow undetectable by monsters... and don't get hurt by area attacks, to the point that the adventurers seem to be the weakest folks in the world. Unarmed children and the elderly often get to places by themselves that we need a dozen other players, and many brutal fights against deadly opponents, to reach. And they're always there FIRST!. Also applicable to some of the Trust alter egos which don't fight, instead provided bonuses around their general vicinity. | |

Stealth Run | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_1e7c4f2d | comment |
Stealth Run: Try walking around in a high-level dungeon without Invisible and Sneak, and not get aggro... I DARE you. We'll just clean up the fine paste that is your corpse afterwards. It's actually quite easy in many areas, as anything that will aggro you ignores Sneak and Invisible. This only changes the type of stealth required. Avoiding things that aggro by sight tends to be easy, as all you need is for them to turn and leave some room behind them. Sound aggro memories basically run after anything within their radius, so sneaking past undead, bats, or slimes in tight passages without the use of the enchantment tends to be difficult. | |

Deal with the Devil: This is part of the ritual in becoming a Blue Mage.

Praetorian Guard: Several of them. The most visible ones are in San d'Oria (the Royal Guard for the d'Oraguilles and the Temple Knights under the Church), Jueno's Ducal Guard, and Aht Urhgan's Immortals. Windurst also has two divisions: The Patriarch Protectors guard the Parliament of Patriarchs while the Sibyl Guards were formed from war orphans and protect the Star Sibyl. Bastok's Mythril and Gold Musketeers may qualify as well, and all of these squads can be seen in actual combat except for the Sibyl and Ducal Guards, and they tend to kick butt compared to other units. In Adoulin there's also the Peacekeepers' Coalition. | |

Ribcage Ridge: Tahrongi Canyon and the Maze of Shakhrami have quite a few wyrm skeletons in them, to the extent one would almost expect to see that kind of dragon nerby often — however, since those are close to starter areas, they end up just hinting at Tiamat being in the nearby Attowa Chasm, which fortunately isn't easily reached by accident. | |

Verbal Tic: In the English script, Tarutaru have fluctuating tics including splicing "taru" into random words; mutating words into repeating rhymes (like "timey-wimey" and "itty-bitty"); or speaking entirely in rhymed verse.

Perpetually Static: The developers try and spice it up, but it's still the same if you defeat any Big Bad or not. They do make continuity quite convenient, for example having "Duke Vicarious" Esha'ntarl take what would be Kam'lanaut's role in the Chains of Promathia story, because of what happens during Rise of the Zilart. | |

Limit Break | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_2afb1a9 | comment |
Tends to be rarer than many MMOs, because SE usually increases the strength of weaker classes to balance them rather than reduce stronger classes. Even the original Dragoon nerf was only indirect because it was a change to Weaponskill TP gain rather than any effect on the class itself.note Prior to the nerf, weaponskills that were said to hit multiple times actually did, for the purposes of generating TP, and spears had a weaponskill that could hit up to eight times; if it did, it would generate enough TP to use the weaponskill again immediately, meaning Dragoons could use a Limit Break over and over again. The "nerf" made multi-hit weaponskills count as one hit for the purposes of TP generation. Scholar got two nasty ones. When it was discovered Absolute Virtue could be epically owned by a party of Scholars stacking Modus Veritas, they nerfed it to the point that normal mobs could resist it, let alone bosses. Embrava was changed from Regen/Regain/Haste to Regen/Refresh/Haste. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Red Mages are known for being able to solo a ridiculous number of difficult fights, but only if they have top-notch gear, and a whole evening to kill. Some of the novice Red Mage solos are on the order of 2-3 hours long. Blood Weapon, one of Dark Knight's SP abilities, and a few other SPs to a lesser degree. When combined with certain equipment and other abilities, it results in flatly obscene amounts of damage... but only once every hour. The Dragoon's old SP, Call Wyvern. As cool as the Wyvern was to look at, it had such low HP that nearly any mob with an AoE ability would kill it, and the only way of healing it involved resting, which got rid of TP for the Dragoon. Waiting two hours for it, even if it died in the first fight after it was summoned, made it that much worse. This has since been changed. | |

For instance, some generals (I'm looking at you, Valaineral) in campaign can defeat multiple enemy squads singlehandedly, including multiple overpowered enemy commanders that can take dozens of players twice as long to defeat. Cerane I Virgaut can take the collective beating of three or four whole enemy squads and her health will barely budge at all. | |

The Punishment | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_30f16d3f | comment |
The Punishment: The five playable races are each cursed with a specific flaw: Humes with apathy, Tarutaru with cowardice, Mithra with envy, Elvaan with arrogance, and Galka with rage.They're not even the ones who screwed up. The Zilart destroyed virtually their entire race (and almost the entire world) by the entire race being able to focus everything on a single task. The playable races were created afterwards by the Goddess Altana, and then immediately were cursed by the God Promathia, but out of good intentions; if they annoyed each other too much to work together well, they couldn't do the same stupid things the Zilart did. Oh, and he also made all the monsters, too, just to make sure they were too busy fighting monsters when they weren't fighting and annoying each other. | |

After the End: Abyssea is an alternate version of the events following the Chains of Promathia story. In Abyssea, your character, Prishe, and Selh'teus challenged Promathia and failed. After absorbing your Abyssea alternate and Selh'teus, Promathia grows stronger, turns the skies of Abyssea blood red, and sends endless hordes of fiends to extinguish all life on the planet. The Rhapsodies story also has a take on the concept, in the future Iroha describes which caused her to be sent back in time to prevent it. | |

Rank Scales with Asskicking | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_3441859b | comment |
Rank Scales with Asskicking: The nation storyline missions will have you fighting alongside Captain Volker, Prince Trion, and Minister Ajido-Marujido. Also, generals in Campaign were much more powerful than entire groups of players, and generals in Besieged would easily reach Game-Breaker status if they fought normal enemies. Averted somewhat by the fact that the actual leaders of those countries (President Karst, King Destin, Star Sybil) are generally pacifist non-combattants. Although it was played straight with Bastok's President Prion in the Wings of the Goddess expansion. He personally leads the Bastokan troops during the Battle of Xarcabard and is seen wearing a suit of armor at all times. Averted in Volker's case by his defense being comparable to that of a wet paper bag when you actually fight alongside him. Of course, he was up against Zeid, who would have Volker's position if he hadn't left Bastok to wander Vana'diel. Justified since Volker is a Warrior. Unless a Warrior wears very specialized damage reduction gear, they generally don't have much more defense than your average paper bag, wet or dry. Furthermore, while Ajido-Marujido hits very hard with his magic, he has less survivability than most mages his level. Rare Random Drop: way too many of them, and cause of Loot Drama. | |

Hammerspace: Players either pull ranged weapons from their leg, like Robocop... or their ass. Not to mention that somehow a bowl of soup and a bed take up the same inventory space. Or that one quest where you carry a cardian, which is about as big as a player character, as a key item, meaning it takes no inventory space at all. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: Many items that are extremely useful to a player are actually extremely common. Some Red Mage strategies for soloing much harder NMs revolve around using a weapon that specifically does 0 damage to avoiding giving it TP to use its special attacks. This makes the fights much longer, but combining this with a series of enhancing spells that cause additional elemental damage every time their weapon hits lets Red Mage kill some NMs that would otherwise be impossible. And the biggest boost to your performance in the game? Your lunch. Food gives tremendous stat boosts. | |

Secret Test of Character: In the "Serpent General" sidequests, imperial mercenary Zazarg is given one of these, once it comes to light that he was once a commander of a military unit of Bastok. He is asked whose side he would be on if the Empire of Aht Urhgan were to go to war with his homeland of Bastok. Zazarg passes the test by taking a third option and saying that he would resign his post, as he would be unwilling to fight either side. The asker commends his answer, saying that soldiers who would betray their own country could not be trusted to begin with. | |

Zerg Rush: Actually done by the players, in most cases. There are a fair number of quests and missions where massive numbers of mobs will attack players. Two missions in Windurst's Wings of the Goddess plot have the beastmen doing a zerg rush. The second one has you defending the gates of the city from it. The first one has a hundred level 30ish enemies running down a tunnel to their target, and your party of 75+ players coming from behind to stop them. | |

The Good Kingdom: All three of the joinable nations fall under this trope to some extent, although the Kingdom of San d'Oria is probably the straightest example because it's a monarchy as well. The Marquisate of Tavnazia and the Grand Duchy of Jeuno may also fall under this, but have certain mitigating factors what with the former being destroyed except for a hole in the ground and the latter being ruled by a secretly evil Archduke. The sacred city of Adoulin used to be this, as it often mentions its founder kind, but has long transitioned to a system of government mediated by multiple factions. | |

Long Runner: The game first launched in 2002, and was still active to celebrate its 20-year anniversary. Not bad considering it was originally designed to last 5 years to match the expected lifespan of the PS2. It outlived a vast (and many would say depressing) number of its contemporaries. Final Fantasy XI is actually over a year OLDER than Square Enix, with its first trailers and releases having Squaresoft logos and copyrights... and it is still running, even with a diminished customer base, over two decades later, with only support for outdated consoles being removed. | |

Also an example of Four Is Death — the "unlucky number" which gives the worst version of each Corsair buff is always exactly four more than the "lucky number" that gives the second best (11 always being the best — any higher and you "go bust", with predictable results). In an interesting inversion, the number four is actually the Lucky Number for about half of the EXP Party Rolls that Corsairs use on a regular basis, i.e. Ninja, Hunter, Chaos Rolls. | |

Oddly inverted, for many jobs (mainly mages), the Elemental Staves and Magian weapons are actually better than the Relic and Mythic Weapons. Relic Weapons are simply high-damage melee damage weapons that do nothing to help casting stats. Certain Mythic Weapons (WHM and BLM) are useful in certain situations, the SMN Mythic Weapon is clearly superior, but other Mythic Weapons (RDM, BRD, and SCH) should not be used for spells cast on enemies. | |

With a Sequel Hook that Lillesette has to stay there until the Cavernous Maws are frozen in stone, like he is in our present time. Maybe for an Apacalypse Nigh style quest, possible even more. | |

Level Grinding | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_549cd62d | comment |
Level Grinding: Used to have quite a lot. Consider that out of 75 levels, you reach the halfway point (in terms of total exp) at level 66. And then at VanaFest 2010, from the Developers themselves, the level cap is increased from 75, to 99. The Abyssea mini-expansion worked on averting this for higher level characters (which is a good thing, considering the increased cap with each Abyssea addon), as one could earn massive amounts of experience in a relatively short amount of time. Nowadays there are even more methods to enhance EXP gain, like Records of Eminence objectives, Fields/Grounds of Valor training regimes and progress in Rhapsodies of Vana'diel missions. | |

The Empire: Shantotto claims to have one of her own in her expansion. Also, the Orcish Empire is a state to the north that invaded the San d'Oria region, so all the orcs in the game are just the expeditionary force of a larger empire. Not to mention the Empire of Aht Urhgan, although this has some aspects of The Good Kingdom as well from a trope perspective. | |

Fantastic Racism | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: Fairly light in the game itself, and light in the player base compared to World of Warcraft, but it exists. Some think Tarutaru are evil little demons hiding behind their cuteness, Elvaan are total jerks, etc. It should be noted that these are mainly restricted to their home cities, for instance, Galka in Aht Urhgan act and are treated pretty much the same as anyone else there. Elvaan can be total jerks. Except Prince Trion, he's an idiot. Or a shining example of a righteous warrior, depending on how much worth you put on Gameplay and Story Segregation (gold armor as a disguise aside). Ashmea B Greinner, on the other hand... San d'Orian Elvaan may act proud, but they don't actively oppress any other races, like the Humes did to the Galka, which is a major part of Bastok's storyline in the past. Tarutaru often hide contempt or evil intentions behind cutesy mannerisms and verbal tics. There is a fairly prevalent theory as to why Mithra and Galka share the lowest Charisma score: they're closer to looking like the beastmen than the other races. Mithras get handwaved due to them being a tribal society on their home continent. Galkas don't get off so lucky, though. | |

Really 700 Years Old: Prishe and Eald'narche both qualify — the former due to an encounter with a certain mysterious object that left her fixed at the age she was at during the encounter, and the latter because not only is he one of the last surviving Zilart, but he is actually older than his brother Kam'lanaut. Esha'ntarl for the same reasons as Eald'narche, too. | |

The Key Is Behind the Lock | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_65bc52c5 | comment |
The Key Is Behind the Lock: A variation happens in Windurst Mission 3-2 (Written in the Stars), which is why it's so problematic to solo. The thing you need to do is inspect the Gate of Light, which is located behind Three Mage Gate in Inner Horutoto Ruins. The Three Mage Gate is locked and you need either a White Mage/Black Mage/Red Mage team (hence the name), or a friend with a Portal Charm which would allow them to open the gate by themself. There is a way to bypass the Three Mage Gate and do the mission solo, but it requires completing a relatively long and somewhat expensive chain of sidequests in Windurst, which would open a backdoor in a different area, allowing one to approach the Gate of Light from the opposite direction. The item you get for completing the mission? A Portal Charm. Thank Altana that the mission can be skipped and done later. | |

The Lost Woods | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_6b7c9f96 | comment |
The Lost Woods: Jugner Forest, though there is a clear if winding path through it in the present. For very old growth style forest, there is The Sanctuary of Zi'Tah, filled with trees that reach beyond the draw distance, numerous roaving plantoids, bugs, walking mushrooms, and tree-tending creatures. There is also a dungeon within that zone called the Boyhada Tree. For getting lost, The Great War era version of Jugner Forest has barricades blocking the usual routes, leading to new detours. Yhoator and Yuhtunga Jungle are better applications, as the map only shows the aboveground paths, and it's up to the player to figure out which undergound paths link them. Caederva Mire can also apply, as the player doesn't even get a map to this place before jumping through a few hoops. | |

The Treasures of Aht Urhgan, the name of the third expansion, are references to both the Empress Nashmeira and to the Mythic Weapons, one for each of the 20 Pre-Seekers of Adoulin Expansion jobs, which are supposed to be the best possible weapons for each job. The Wings of the Goddess, the name of the fourth expansion, are the player and Lilisette, the heroine of the expansion, who are chosen by the Goddess Altana as her champions. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: So many quests are insanely difficult to do, or even know about, without using the internet. Quest givers are unlabeled, the steps are vague, the in-game quest log doesn't update with progress beyond initial opening and completion, and the rewards are usually unmentioned. Considering how many of the quests are all but required (Chocobo License, Advanced and Sub Jobs), checking the fan wiki or other guides is required. For perspective as to how bad this can be, there are several quests where you are asked to bring an item to the quest giver. To be extra clear, he/she literally will not elaborate further than an "item". This has, however, changed in recent years, especially since the Adoulin expansion, where a quest NPC even mocks the concept of sending you on a task to an area with no coordinates, and then provides them to you. Some Records of Eminence objectives also provide some concrete information about landmark progress quests. | |

Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_6f572188 | comment |
Another Dimension: Many. All of the protocrystals contain an Elemental Plane which houses the primal gods, and allows summoners to make pacts with them. The Astral Realm is the residence of gods, who watch over Vana'diel and maintain the eight elements. It can only be entered by gods. Dynamis is a dream world created by Diabolos, into which the Shadow Lord and his armies have escaped. Promyvion is the realm of Emptiness, which steals patches of land and buildings from Vana'diel. The remnants of memories take the form of monsters here. A Pocket Dimension within the fifth mothercrystal contains Al'Taieu, the capital of the Zilart. The base of Al'Taieu has a portal to Empyreal Paradox, a space directly beneath the Astral Realm, and overlooking Vana'diel. Shadowreign is the past of Vana'diel, specifically the Crystal War era. Altering key events during the war will change the course of the future. (Ingame, you can cause pixies to appear in certain zones by befriending them in the past.) In one possible timeline, the Shadow Lord won the Crystal War. This future cannot be explored. It is actually the original timeline, and the player occupies an alternate, having received Altana's favor and changed the past. The Walk of Echoes is a dimension in-between possible timelines. The god Atomos spits out unfavored timelines here, along with the memories that go with them. Provenance is the origin of Vana'diel, containing the crystal that gives life. Abyssea is an alternate timeline in which Promathia awoke and shattered the world, turning the skies blood-red and unleashing powerful monsters to end all remaining life. Abyssea's Empyreal Paradox is located just above the moon, which houses its version of Al'Taieu. Vagary is a shadowy, sealed-off Pocket Dimension, the residence and laboratory of dvergar scientist Skokkr Undrborn. Tartarus is a world filled with darkness and powerful monsters. Despite its importance, the player cannot access it. Escha is a world devoid of time, a possible future of Vana'diel completely consumed by the Emptiness. Desuetia is an alternate timeline in which Promathia reached his ultimate form as an absolute god of darkness. Finally, there is a Pocket Dimension within Reisenjima's mothercrystal, which is slowly being corroded by Emptiness. | |

One Size Fits All | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_6f8b835d | comment |
One Size Fits All: How can a 7-foot Galka wear gear from a 2-and-a-half-foot Tarutaru? The world may never know. Vana'diel is also one size fits all, in a manner of speaking. For instance, no "river" in the world is deeper than a few inches, because otherwise Tarutarus would be walking totally submerged. Not true. There are many places a tarutaru can go where their entire body will be underwater. Which means, obviously, that tarus are amphibious. | |

Killer Rabbit | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_74828aea | comment |
Killer Rabbit: Pretty much every monster class, no matter how soft and fuzzy, has rather high-level Notorious Monster representatives. Hence the maxim: "No matter how powerful you are, somewhere in the world there is a rabbit that can kick your ass." Related, "There's a crab for every level." Perhaps a humanoid example with Professor Shantotto, and the Tartaru race in general, they're only about 1"1/2 feet tops, and they're unbelievably powerful casters, so much so that Shantotto, regarded as the strongest, can take over the world if she ever turned evil. | |

After her you'll hear Prishe and Kam'lanaut as the other Dissidia representatives for the game besides Shantotto, and thanks to Record Keeper and Opera Omnia, a few players might be able to name Lilisette, Lion, the Shadow Lord, and Eald'narche. | |

Absurdly High Level Cap | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_91526ff7 | comment |
Absurdly High Level Cap: Played with. The normal level cap, after finishing every Limit Break quest, is 99. While reaching this is required for most endgame content, the game still has several extrinsic ways of boosting your character, such as Merit Points; Capacity Points; Job Points; Master Points on top of those; and Item Level gear that can boost a character's effective level to 119. To elaborate: a single Job Point requires 30,000 Capacity Points, meaning maxing a Job at 2100 Job Points (which can take a long time) requires 63 million Capacity Points. | |

Artificial Stupidity | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_940a5958 | comment |
Artificial Stupidity: Trusts, NPC party members that the players can summon in place of real players, are not the brightest bunch: the most evident part is that they will not attack enemies by themselves...even if, say, an aggro'd monster is currently bashing the player, or even they themselves. The only way to get them to attack enemies is to target an enemy and initiate an autoattack, even casting spells or using weaponskills won't do it. While this is likely intentional to avoid AFK farming in which the Trusts go on to slaughter any enemy around the player by themselves, it can make fights with multiple enemies frustrating since they will only attack the enemy the player is targetting, and any other surrounding enemy will only get hit by incidental AoE spells and weaponskills. | |

Bare-Fisted Monk | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_a00eb8f9 | comment |
Bare-Fisted Monk: Sort of averted by the Monk job. They usually fight with cesti, claws, hooks, katars, and other weapons which attach directly to the hands. Well, you can fight as a Monk without weapons — and you will, if you start as one; Monk is the only one of the six starting classes to get no weapon as part of they're starting outfit (you get a White Belt instead: +1 Strength). You may not be able to afford a weapon for a few levels, but the Records of Eminence system allows you to acquire with the Sparks of Eminence currency you can accumulate by setting objectives aligned with how you're playing the game. When the game initially launched in the US, Monks started with a pair of Onion Cesti, which increased the delay between attacks by 50% and increased damage by 10%. Bare-fisted was the way to go anyway. | |

Infinity +1 Sword: Relic, Mythic, Empyrean and Aeonic weapons. Oddly inverted, for many jobs (mainly mages), the Elemental Staves and Magian weapons are actually better than the Relic and Mythic Weapons. Relic Weapons are simply high-damage melee damage weapons that do nothing to help casting stats. Certain Mythic Weapons (WHM and BLM) are useful in certain situations, the SMN Mythic Weapon is clearly superior, but other Mythic Weapons (RDM, BRD, and SCH) should not be used for spells cast on enemies. | |

The Gambler: Corsairs are gambler pirates who boost specific stats by random amounts, and use a blackjack-like mechanic to improve the results. Also an example of Four Is Death — the "unlucky number" which gives the worst version of each Corsair buff is always exactly four more than the "lucky number" that gives the second best (11 always being the best — any higher and you "go bust", with predictable results). In an interesting inversion, the number four is actually the Lucky Number for about half of the EXP Party Rolls that Corsairs use on a regular basis, i.e. Ninja, Hunter, Chaos Rolls. | |

One-Gender Race: The Mithra are a playable race of catgirls. Word of God says that male Mithra do exist, but only one has been seen in the game, so far.note Lehko was apparently only brought to Windurst because the Tarutaru thought the all-female Mithra Mercenaries would follow orders better if the orders came from a man. The Galka fully play this straight, being an all male race that reproduce through a form of reincarnation.note A mistranslation in the US instruction booklet said that Galka are asexual, but this was later corrected in interviews. | |

"Instant Death" Radius | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_c185022a | comment |
"Instant Death" Radius: Most mobs are bad enough, but generally speaking, messing with those Monk monsters isn't a good idea. There's also "Extremely Bad Breath", which is used by 3 specific Morbol NMs. It instantly kills anyone within a certain radius. Odin's Zantetsuken is the best example of this; it is an AoE death effect. | |

Fun with Acronyms: It seems that Windurstian kids don't think their group names through, as a string of Windurst quests involve the Star Onion Brigade. This seems to be a perpetual thing, since in the Wings of the Goddess, there is another group called the Windurstian Teen Force. Seekers of Adoulin added the Fantastic Adoulin Imperial Liberators. | |

Class Change Level Reset | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_c62ef4ce | comment |
Class Change Level Reset: Played with, each class is leveled independently. So if you have a level 40 Warrior and never level any other class, then changing that class later would drop back to one. However, if you've already unlocked the ability to use a subjob and set the already-leveled class as your sub, you get the benefit of some stat boost and possibly skills and spells, depening on the job and level. | |

Shout-Out | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The monster and weapon list is loaded with them. Some examples include a trio of bats called the Black Triple Stars, Joyeuse, Durandal, and Curtana, and numerous monsters named from nearly every mythology, whether Greek, Norse, American, Asian, or otherwise. An extremely drunk Moblin calls his superior "Mighty morphin Genererarrajudy." "Mighty Morphing Power C.I.D." is one of the possible names you can give to Cid's custom airship. In the Treasures of Aht Urhgan story, there is a facility where forbidden alchemy was used to fuse different species together, creating chimera. Many of the names you can give to a Puppetmaster's automaton are references to military equipment (E100, X-32, A7V) and sci-fi (Robby, Marvin, Data). Several references to the "all your base are belong to us" meme appear in the Wings of the Goddess story. Also from Wings of the Goddess: In one of the Scholar quests: In one of the later limit-breaking quests: In the Voidwatch quests, Kieran spits in your general direction. Cait Sith suggests, "Even if you do not believe in the power of the crystals, believe in us who believe in them!" | |

Necromancer: You can meet one living in a dungeon for a quest series. Necromancer was also one of the jobs discussed to be added in the Treasures of Aht Urhgan expansion, but they decided against it since the job would be essentially useless during the day. We instead got Puppetmaster. Later, Puppetmaster got a few buffs. | |

Metal Slime: You know this trope counts if you've ever seen Cactrot Rapido. There's a quest Notorious Monster with this name too. A character is lucky if they can mod up to 2000 HP. Cactrot Rapido can use 10000 Needles* 10,000 points of damage, about 5 times more than a player can have, as opposed to normal cactaurs being limited to 1000 Needles* 1,000 points of damage, still enough to halfway kill most players. | |

Hard Work Hardly Works | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_cc427069 | comment |
Hard Work Hardly Works: Subverted by the fact that any challenge you beat is often done by a group of yourself and other players, and horribly averted by the NPC generals in Besieged and Campaign. For instance, some generals (I'm looking at you, Valaineral) in campaign can defeat multiple enemy squads singlehandedly, including multiple overpowered enemy commanders that can take dozens of players twice as long to defeat. Cerane I Virgaut can take the collective beating of three or four whole enemy squads and her health will barely budge at all. | |

Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu? | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_cc4d190a | comment |
Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: In order for a Summoner to be able to summon one of the Celestial Avatars, they have to beat that avatar. Usually with the help of other players, but you can even choose to do a version of the battle that makes you face said Avatar solo, with only a radioactive squirrel for help. To be fair, it's explained that most of the avatars you fight (and summon) are just fragments of that actual being's power. In the Wings of the Goddess quest, an NPC asks you if you had ever fought a god before. Sadly, since your character does not speak, the NPC does not get to learn the truth. Players who have done all of the missions, quests, and hunt Notorious Monsters have fought 21 gods.The List Ifirt, Shiva, Garuda, Titan, Ramuh, Levithan, Genbu, Seiryu, Suzaku, Byakko, Kirin, Fenrir, Diabolos, Bahamut, Promathia, Carbuncle, Odin, Alexander, Dark Ixion, Cait Sith Ceithir, and Atmos. This does not count supremely powerful beings such as Pandemonium Warden, or beastmen leaders who call themselves gods but are just unusually strong for their species. The only two named gods in the game that players have not fought (yet?) are Phoenix and Altana. The final moments of the Rhapsodies of Vana'diel lead up to one of the major forces of the Final Fantasy multiverse gaining physical shape, allowing the players to try and solve its particular problem the way they know best. | |

Connected All Along: In a series of seemingly unrelated sidequests, a character who is most often seen next to the Scouts' Coalition is revealed in a flashback to be the daughter of the elderly couple, who are most often seen enjoying lunch at the cafe right across the plaza. All three of them have lost their memories of this connection due to a Deal with the Devil. Worse, the elderly couple are aware they have a daughter—the unborn baby the woman was carrying back then whom the devil stole—and wish that child well, but they have no idea they have two daughters. | |

Shoot the Medic First | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_df858e81 | comment |
Shoot the Medic First: Averted. Due to the fact that groups of enemies are fought by putting the entire group to sleep and ganging up on one at a time, enemy White Mages are often targeted last because Benediction would wake up and fully heal every other enemy. | |

Nerf | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_e545e190 | comment |
Nerf: There's a reason for the lolDRG joke. And what exactly did Sambas on pets do to you, Square Enix? That said, there haven't been any real job-related nerfs for a while, and dragoon specifically has gotten quite some buffs in its own right. For a while the nerfs seem more towards easy ways to make money to discourage RMTs, but which often made things harder for more casual players. Tends to be rarer than many MMOs, because SE usually increases the strength of weaker classes to balance them rather than reduce stronger classes. Even the original Dragoon nerf was only indirect because it was a change to Weaponskill TP gain rather than any effect on the class itself.note Prior to the nerf, weaponskills that were said to hit multiple times actually did, for the purposes of generating TP, and spears had a weaponskill that could hit up to eight times; if it did, it would generate enough TP to use the weaponskill again immediately, meaning Dragoons could use a Limit Break over and over again. The "nerf" made multi-hit weaponskills count as one hit for the purposes of TP generation. Scholar got two nasty ones. When it was discovered Absolute Virtue could be epically owned by a party of Scholars stacking Modus Veritas, they nerfed it to the point that normal mobs could resist it, let alone bosses. Embrava was changed from Regen/Regain/Haste to Regen/Refresh/Haste. | |

Old Master: Maat. Don't let the age fool you. He mastered most jobs in the game — but sticks to Monk when fighting in the past. He goes about as easy on the beastmen as he goes on players. His good taste extends beyond his choice in caps and to his job class, it seems. Oggbi also counts, as he's the man who teaches Monks the dreaded Asuran Fists weapon skill, and does not play around in Campaign battles. | |

Script Breaking | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_f75c8193 | comment |
Script Breaking: You can have very different quest and missions active at the same time which can sometime share characters being in very different states — for example, getting a quest from Shantotto before or during her own expansion, and finishing it during or after it respectively (during her expansion story, the one you can visit is suppposed to be a fake in her absence whom can apparently pose as an ambassador in Aht Urghan and nuke a khimaira for thousands of damage, activating a quest that shows your NPC fellow in trouble at an enemy stronghold, have him help you with a fight for a different quest related to him, then go save him at the original dungeon later; Lion dying at the end of the Zilart missions, but if you change nations and do the new nation's missions, you'll eventually meet her again as if nothing had happened. Can't blame the devs, there's a lot of story to keep track of and they keep adding more, but it can get odd at times. Averted while a particular Treasures of Aht Urghan is active. Until the mission is cleared the player is not allowed to visit the location where a NPC is located due to the forementioned NPC's involvement in the mission. Also heavily averted during the Rhapsodies of Vana'diel missions, which involve character from several older mission lines, and cannot advance unless some of those characters are available in their own narratives. | |

Last Stand: Raogrimm holds off the Ark Angels after you defeat him as the Shadowlord to let the party escape. Aphmau's Blue Mage bodyguard protects the party from an oncoming wave of Mamool Ja, likely casting Self Destruct. Lehko Habhoka in Wings of the Goddess does the same, having hidden his mortal wound from the previous fight. And in Rhapsodies of Vana'diel you see the biggest gathering of FFXI characters ever as the Cloud of Darkness attacks the last remaining place in Vana'diel, the far eastern island of Reisenjima. | |

The Very Definitely Final Dungeon | |
Final Fantasy XI (Video Game) / int_f821e963 | comment |
The Very Definitely Final Dungeon: Being an MMO with actual storylines, the game actually has several of these. The vanilla Nation storylines have Castle Zvahl: a dark ominous castle that is the home/tomb of the Shadow Lord, placed in the forbidden snow-covered land of Xarcabard. Rise of the Zilart has Tu'Lia, a floating island created by the Zilart to act as the "gate to Paradise". In total contrast with the dark and dreary Castle Zvahl, Tu'Lia is mostly serene, with Ru'Aun Gardens in particular bringing to mind the concept of the garden of Eden. | |

Hopeless Boss Fight: The infamous Absolute Virtue was intended to be this, and originally had no loot drops. However, this was only revealed in an interview many years after its introduction to the game. In the meantime, the devs had strung along the player base with implications that it was supposed to be beatable, including releasing an incomprehensible video that supposedly gave hints to beating it. note It was in fact downed several times, but the devs usually declared these attempts exploits, which only added to the confusion. | |

Depends on what you mean. Cardians are much more effective combatants, but have barely any independent thought. Automatons are weaker, but have full fledged personalities, with hopes and dreams. That unfortunately don't always line up with their master's. | |
